We make all MSDK encoders declare "memory:VAMemory" feature. Then
the pipeline such as:
gst-launch-1.0 -vf filesrc location=xxx.h264 ! h264parse ! \
vah264dec ! msdkh265enc ! fakesink
will choose VA memory caps between the VA decoder and MSDK encoder.

The MSDK encoder's query function is not set and it just forwards
all query to its base class. We now need to answer the context
query correctly. Other VA plugins need to query the VA display.
By the way, the current query of "gst.msdk.Context" is also missing.
The other MSDK elements must depend on the bin's context message(
sent in context_propagate()) to set their MsdkContext correctly.

We now can use the gst va lib's display to create our MSDK context,
and use its helper functions to simplify our code. The improved logic
is like this:
1. Every MSDK element should use gst_msdk_context_find() to find a MSDK
context from neighbour. If valid, reuse it.
2. Use gst_msdk_ensure_new_context(). It will first query neighbours
about the GstVaDisplay, if found(e.g. some VA element is connected),
use gst_msdk_context_from_external_display() to create a MSDK context.
3. Then, creating the MSDK context from scratch. It creates both the
display and MSDK context.

The VA display object from VA lib is a common defined object. which
contain the whole display things. It is easier to use, and more important,
we can share it with the other VA plugins and keep all the VA related
plugins working on the same GPU device.
We also delete the useless gst_msdk_context_get_fd() API.

... in favour of dep.get_variable('foo', ..) which in some
cases allows for further cleanups in future since we can
extract variables from pkg-config dependencies as well as
internal dependencies using this mechanism.

It's possible to have installed MediaSDK environment
package (libmfx-dev in Debian) without libva environment package. This
setup will lead to a breakage of meson configuration.
The fix is to get the libva's driver directory variable after the
dependency is validated as found.
